Also, for those who were pleasantly stretched by an aside I mentioned on Sunday morning — namely the idea that Jesus was not following a script but was constantly in fellowship with the Father for guidance in what needed to happen next — my main sources for that seem to come from John 5 and Philippians 2:1-8. I’m thinking of writing a new sermon on that for Sunday night, which is another reason I’m not thinking much about a blog post.

This week’s post is a restating of what I believe I have communicated so far in these weekly musings and reflections. I’m hoping reading a review like this will help you see how many of these posts are connected and build on each other.

Audio or video edition … Note: I have wanted to try the video edition for a while, and this seemed like a good one to do it on. There are one or two mis-speaks in the video, but I don’t do corrective retakes… I’d appreciate feedback about if you find a video gets the ideas across better for you. I’m imagining that reading the written version as you hear me on the video is the best option.
